Netflix VR/AR Product Innovation Case – Camp BizSmart 2017

“Netflix changed everything, again. . . it has made history at the Emmy’s,” Just as Netflix made history at the Emmy’s it continues to lead the way for digital content since it’s beginning in 1997. Netflix is also a company that through its own example of leading the way in its industry, is a model for challenging us to “dare greatly” and that helps us to inspire young people to have the courage to think differently, have bold ideas, and find a new way to do something – execute and take a chance – in other words – dare to lead the way, in order to innovate big.

Camp BizSmart is honored to announce that Netflix is a Camp BizSmart Product Innovation Partner for 2017. It is a pleasure to work with David Wells, CFO at Netflix to create a product innovation case for Camp BizSmart Summer sessions at our premiere locations in Silicon Valley, at Stanford University, Santa Clara University, the BASIS Independent school in San Jose, and in Chattanooga, TN at the Baylor School.
